Nuts had ta be extremely loose???
Or it sheared the body bolts??? Which have never heard of myself.
Body bolts loose and got play and wobble in em???
Usually if a blade is that loose for some reason
The chain comes off and binds up the drive sprocket.
Unfugg it and retighten tension screws, put plate back on, crank down the nuts and run it.

Unusual........


,...and file all the burrs off of the drive links.

Or set it a lil loose and pizz rev it a couple of times and retighten chain.......just sayin.
